PREPARATION FOR SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE

In preparation for the settlement conference, each party must submit a confidential settlement conference statement for in camera review. The statement must contain the following:

1. A brief statement of the nature of the action.

2. A concise summary of the evidence that supports your theory of the case, including the names of individuals disclosed pursuant to Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(i), the Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(iii) computation of damages, and the Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(iv) insurance information. You must provide all information which documents or supports your damages claims. Copies of medical records or treatment records need not be submitted but, rather, must be provided in a table or summary format.

3. Attach to your statement any documents or exhibits that are relevant to key factual or legal issues, including selected pages from deposition transcripts or responses to other discovery requests.

4. An analysis of the key issues involved in the litigation. The analysis must include a discussion of the strongest points in your case, both legal and factual, and a frank discussion of the weakest points as well. The court expects you to present a thorough analysis of the key issues and candid evaluation of the merits of your case.

5. Identify and explain any obstacles to settlement, e.g. medical liens, statutory caps, or motions pending before the court.

6. The history of settlement discussions, if any, which have occurred in this case. Provide any demands, offers, or offers of judgment that have been made and, if applicable, the reasons they have been rejected. Attach a copy of all settlement correspondence, including all written demands or offers and responses to the offers.

7. Provide the initial settlement proposal that will be presented at the settlement conference with a justification for any monetary amount. The proposal must include any nonmonetary settlement terms that will be presented.

8. The parties are encouraged, but not required, to exchange non-confidential portions of the settlement conference statements before the scheduled conference. The court has found the exchange of statements beneficial for purposes of settlement discussion.

The settlement conference statements must be received in my chambers, Room 3099, not later than 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 12, 2019. Do not serve a copy on opposing counsel. Do not deliver or mail copies to the clerk's office.

The purpose of the statement is to assist the undersigned magistrate judge in preparing for and conducting the settlement conference. To facilitate a meaningful conference, your utmost candor in responding to all the above-listed questions is required. The settlement conference statement will remain confidential. If this case does not settle, the settlement conference statement will not be disclosed to the judge who ultimately presides over the trial. Each statement will be securely maintained in my chambers and will be destroyed following the conference.

Failure to comply with the requirements set forth in this order will subject the noncompliant party to sanctions under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16(f).
